Romans 10:3-10 Because, not having knowledge of God's righteousness, and desiring to give effect to their righteousness, they have not put themselves under the righteousness of God.

BBE⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ Because, not having knowledge of God's righteousness, and desiring to give effect to their righteousness, they have not put themselves under the righteousness of God. ⁴ For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who has faith. ⁵ For Moses says that the man who does the righteousness which is of the law will get life by it. ⁶ But the righteousness which is of faith says these words, Say not in your heart, Who will go up to heaven? that is, to make Christ come down: ⁷ Or, Who will go down into the deep? that is, to make Christ come again from the dead: ⁸ But what does it say? The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart: that is, the word of faith of which we are the preachers: ⁹ Because, if you say with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and have faith in your heart that God has made him come back from the dead, you will have salvation: ¹⁰ For with the heart man has faith to get righteousness, and with the mouth he says that Jesus is Lord to get salvation.
